Fans admired the actor not only for his fitness but also for his dedication. One user wrote, “Stability! I want to stay this fit till I die, working every day for it.” Another commented, “Always an inspiration… a bow to Milind sir.” A fan also called him “inspiring.”

Milind recently returned from his trip to England, where he attended the Men’s Singles final at Wimbledon. He shared his experience on Instagram, writing, “Fun week in England with @ankita_earthy… ABBA concert, Seven Sisters hike, lots of great food and of course, the most exciting Wimbledon Men’s Singles final on Centre Court!”


He added, “Been watching Wimbledon right from the earliest days of TV in the 1970s, with players like Björn Borg and John McEnroe, Boris Becker, Martina Navratilova… so actually being here live was really like being a part of something historic—especially with Jannik Sinner being the first Italian to ever win in almost 150 years. I’ve been to world-level sporting events before, but the energy and the excitement of Centre Court at Wimbledon really is something to be experienced.”
